    ISO Quadrajet

    Looking for a Quadrajet, electric choke, no computer control. Does not matter what it is off of (one off of a V6 or other smaller CID engine is preferable, post 1975). Condition is not super important, as long as it is complete and not locked up, I will be rebuilding it anyways. Will be...

    Please forgive me...

    I bought a Swinger. A 1971 Dodge Dart Swinger. I love my GM products but I have been heavily influenced by Mopar's in my life. General Lee, Bullit, Dirty Mary Crazy Larry, Duel, Brewster Mccloud, Blues Brothers (Granted most of those are B or C body's, but still have always taken a liking to...

    One day builds, or quick projects

    Thought this might be a neat idea for a thread, post up pics of any projects you tackle in a day or two, doesn't really matter the subject matter of said project. Having my "long term project" (the 79), I find it fun to be able to see something go from nothing to done, or almost done in a...

    So having sold the cab and front clip from my 85 means that I have a frame now, and I have already cut it to sell the front suspension out of it, with the intention of making the rear section a trailer frame, so I am wondering if anyone has replaced the trucks rear axle for a real trailer axle...

    The Faithful 74 GMC that has gone on to save at least 5 other squares (from parts I had alone) is ready to go on and save some more. What I have here is the remnants of the cab that are all pretty nice parts and are parts that are not reproduced. Pricing will be dependent on what pieces are...

    Basic patch panel "How to"

    It was suggested in my 79's thread to do some How to's, so here is one on making a basic patch panel. First is to cut out the ugly, after that is done, make a quick template, some card stock or cardboard works well, cut it out with scissors, doesn't need to be perfect as the metal can be shaped...

    Classic Parts of America Bed Sides?

    After doing some deducing and maths, it came to my attention that it would end up to be cheaper and much less work to get new bedsides for my 79 rather than reworking the ones I was planning on using. Around $460(shipped) for all the patch panels needed for my bedsides, then all the metal work...

    1/2 ton lower control arm washers (retainers)

    Anyone know of a source for the washers for the lower control arms on a 1/2 ton? The uppers are readily available but does not appear to be the same story for the lowers. Even a good used set would do. The ones off my 79 had around a half inch of rust in-between the washer and the bushings...

    Th350, 31's- 3.73 non OD vs 4.11 w/GearVendors OD

    Since my 79 is a big ten, I plan to use it to tow stuff with, so I am going to gear it appropriately, my original plan was to go with 3.73s and 31's, but then I thought that if I went the route of a gear vendors OD, with 4.11's and 31's would give me around a 3.20 gear in OD, but with the grunt...

    In order to continue the restoration of my 79 going, I'm going to get the frame soon to get a couple parts off of it and then arrange to have it dustless blasted, take it all apart and then get to rebuilding and painting everything. After that start putting it back together and get the cab...

    Tech: How to Identify Original, GM Replacement, and Aftermarket Body Panels (Fenders, Hoods, Doors)

    I thought this might be a good idea to create a knowledge base on the differences between factory, GM replacement, and aftermarket body panels as there does not seem to be a good reference for such (that I know of). Basically any body panels (hoods, fenders, doors, fillers, bed panels...

    Harbor Freight Air Compressor Fix

    Thought I'd share this as it might help someone out that encounters a similar issue. I have the 21 gallon HF air compressor, have never really given me any issues in the near 4 years of abuse I have put it through with doing all of the work on my 76, painting shutters and front door, lots of...

    Homemade Planishing Hammer (and other homemade tools)

    I had started on this on New Years day and finally got around to finishing it today. I was planning on buying the Harbor Freight unit but as my luck would have it they stopped selling them so that was a no go, so I decided to try making one myself. The frame is made from an old elliptical, the...

    Cam Swap in Truck W/AC

    So after my 76 got rear ended in my driveway and I picked up a front clip for my 79 in the last few miles home it started ticking like crazy, spent 9 hours fiddling with the rockers and preload as they were not adjusted correctly, got it all buttoned up, took for a drive at operating temp, went...

    I am looking for a gauge cluster with an air pressure gauge used in the larger 60 and 70 series trucks with air brakes. Does not need the speedo or fuel gauge but ideally with oil, volts, and temp (not necessary) and circuit board (also not necessary). I would even be interested in just the air...
